SEAN BONNIWELL R.I.P






I freakin' love The Music Machine. They had just the right combination of brilliantly thought out arrangements and thuggish punk beat, of brooding dark lyrics and sly humour. So much to love, so much evil fuzz guitar and and brain slicing farfisa and brilliant propulsive basslines and weird turnarounds and great echoey claps... And their all black with one black glove uniform is equally cool and stupid and endearing.

The buzzing brain behind The Music Machine, Sean Bonniwell, blinked out from lung cancer on the 20/12/11. I'll play a whole bunch of his work on the show this week, but here's a few faves for now...
